HIVE
The HIVE showcased a range of ten high-quality, sustainable, well-designed prefabricated houses at Canterbury Agricultural Park from April 2012 to November 2014.
This project was brought to life through close collaboration with twenty-eight sponsoring partners providing in-kind, discounted or funding assistance. At the heart of HIVE was the enthusiasm of key housing teams. Their time and energy enabled this unique opportunity to showcase prefabrication to Cantabrians and a wide range of New Zealanders; members of the public, construction industry professionals, local and central government.
